Why practice social distancing?

 COVID-19 spreads mainly among people
who are in close contact (advise within
about 2 meters) for a prolonged period.
 Spread happens when an infected person
coughs, sneezes, or talks, and droplets
from their mouth or nose are launched
into the air and land in the mouths or
noses of people nearby.
 Recent studies indicate that people who
are infected but do not have symptoms
likely also play a role in the spread of
COVID-19.

Tips for social distancing:

 Follow guidance from authorities where you live.
 If you need to shop for food or medicine at the grocery
store or pharmacy, stay at least 1.5 meters away from
others.
 Use mail-order for medications, if possible.
 Avoid large and small gatherings in private places and
public spaces, such a friend’s house, parks, restaurants,
shops, or any other place.
 Work from home when possible.
 If possible, avoid using any kind of public transportation,
ridesharing, or taxis.
